Mental Health Social Worker or Registered Psychologist (Independent Contractor)
Ipswich-Based | Flexible Days | Supportive Team | Trauma-Informed Practice

Location: Ipswich, QLD
Employment Type: Independent Contractor (1–5 days per week)
Remuneration: Percentage-based contractor rate
Start Date: Negotiable – we’re ready when you are!

Are you a warm, values-driven clinician who enjoys working autonomously, but still wants to feel part of a team? We’re looking for a Mental Health Social Worker or Registered Psychologist to join our Ipswich-based trauma-informed practice.

We support a wide range of adult clients through various funding streams, including Medicare Mental Health Care Plans, Veterans and families, WorkCover, NDIS, and private referrals. You’ll be joining a down-to-earth, supportive team that’s committed to meaningful care (and genuinely nice to work with!).

About the Role

Provide individual counselling or psychological therapy with adults

Deliver assessments, treatment planning, and progress reports (with support and templates provided)

Enjoy the freedom to structure your days and sessions in a way that suits your practice style

About You

Mental Health Social Worker: Registered with the AASW

Psychologist: Registered with AHPRA

All applicants must be eligible for a Medicare provider number

Experience in trauma-informed practice (or a strong interest in it)

Able to work independently, but open to collaboration and connection

Confident with basic admin tasks

Experience with funding streams like NDIS, WorkCover or DVA is a bonus—but not essential

What We Offer

A steady stream of referrals that align with your skills and preferences

Beautiful, fully furnished therapy rooms and optional telehealth flexibility

A friendly and inclusive team that values your wellbeing

Peer support, optional PD opportunities, and flexibility to work 1–5 days per week

To apply, just send your CV and a short introduction to [email protected]
If you’d like to have a confidential chat first, feel free to contact Dean on 07 2801 6603.

We welcome applicants from all backgrounds and encourage clinicians with lived experience to apply.
